Eastwood's empty chair, the New Yorker cover, the Obama-as-Costanza meme

I never thought I'd see the day when popular culture began to mock Obama. Every other president in my lifetime has received that kind of treatment, but the media kept their hands off of Obama for whatever reason. Until now.

quote:George exhibits a number of negative character traits, among them stinginess, selfishness, dishonesty, insecurity, and neurosis. Many of these traits stem from a dysfunctional childhood with his squabbling parents Frank and Estelle, and often form the basis of his involvement in various plots, schemes, and awkward social encounters. Episode plots frequently feature George manufacturing elaborate deceptions at work or in his relationships in order to gain or maintain some small or imagined advantage or (pretend) image of success. He had success in "The Opposite", in which he begins (with Jerry's encouragement) to do the complete opposite of what his instincts tell him to do, which results in him getting a girlfriend and a job with the New York Yankees.

That really is a WOW moment. 2) That same black man can be judged on his performance and replaced if it is found to be lacking. That, also, is a WOW circumstance.
